The Blogathon from Another World Hits Near North Pole

Earlier this week, the official Blog of the Darned forward listening station at the North Pole picked up an unidentified object that crashed into the ice approximately 40 miles southeast of the station. I flew in and led a team of bloggers to the crash site. We discovered a large circular object buried in the ice. As a storm front was moving in, we had no choice but to attempt to free the object with thermite bombs. The object was destroyed, but the body of the sole passenger was recover encased in a large block of ice.Acting on orders from the military high command, we were to make no attempt to free the alien creature from his icy tomb. Unfortunately, I inadvertently left an electric blanket on top of the block of ice overnight and thawed out the creature we dubbed, The Blogathon From Another World.My bad.

The Blogathon From Another World subsists entirely on mammal blood. In order to better understand the creature, a group of rogue bloggers attempted to clone the monster with the station's supply of blood plasma. Now, The Blogathon From Another World is unleashed on the interwebs. Already, posts on the best science fiction films from any era have begun to appear. We will continue to monitor the situation and provide links to new posts as they go live.Posts after April 10
